WHERE’S THE MAGIC?

I got asked once my favourite person from history in a job interview. I said
Isaac Newton. An old cricket coach told me about the laws of motion. And I never
forgot. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. It helped fix my right
arm leg spin. I later

THE SUBTLE SHADE OF THE CLOUDS

Garlic takes six to seven months to grow. I’m still working it out. I planted my
garlic too late. Not the farm garlic though. They’ve had practice. Over a
thousand bulbs this year, maybe more. Tens of thousands of cloves. Garlic is the
biggest harvest of the year.

30 YEARS OLD

I remember sitting in the car on the way to drop my brother to preschool. Being
9 years old and telling my mum how excited I was to turn ten. Double digits! I
feel the same way about 29 to 30. I hardly even got used to saying I’m

ATTITUDE FOLLOWS BEHAVIOUR

Imposter syndrome. Feeling like you’re doing something you shouldn’t be. Hanging
around those who you feel should be. It’s true, if at any time you feel your
skill is inadequate, it likely is. But that just means you know what you don’t
know. A plumber who’

THE SAME FEELING

Starting something new. A business, a relationship, an adventure, a creation.
Hell, it doesn’t even have to be new. Or even the start. Still, the feelings
creep in. Am I going to make it? Does she like me? What does he think? Goodness
what if I go broke? Valid

TRICK PLAYS MAKE HEADLINES

Tempting to do the big. Tempting to do the thing no one’s ever done. The trick.
Like the old man on the hill. Yelling, kicking, showing off, swinging. Look look
look! Get the process right and the rest will follow! That’s the real trick.
Process over time. Try

WU WEI (无为) — THE ART OF NOT FORCING

The controlled accident. Sometimes it gets mistaken for "do nothing" or "doing
nothing". Because the characters 无为 (wu wei) mean nothing (wu, 无) and doing
(wei, 为). So although a literal translation would be doing nothing, it doesn’t
mean the same as sitting around all day. Although it might

MISTAKING THE MENU FOR THE FOOD

Let’s do an experiment. A chef who can’t read comes into your kitchen to cook
you a meal. You’re sitting in another room and can’t see what they’re making but
you can smell it. On the bench top there are two cans, one red, one

PLACEBO YOURSELF

If there’s something that you’d like to do or some condition you’d like to be
true, let it happen. Believe it’s going to happen. Write it down. Start talking
about it with yourself. I’ve got this. You (I) can do it. That’s what most

I started building a garden in the backyard. It’s a small space but it took

OPERATION ZERO COMMUTE

I’d like to setup a life where my commute time is basically zero. As much as
possible from home. Work from home, gym from home, practice farming from home,
community from home. Everything walking or riding distance, the rest delivered.

HOME ALONE ON A SATURDAY NIGHT

Got caught in thought space today. Ideas galore, activities here and there,
actions minimal, lots of standing around watching not enough touching. Like the
guy with a crush on a girl but never says anything. So I took a step outside
thought space. And found gravity. Twenty minutes of movement

My brother and I got rejected from applying to the AI Grant with Nutrify the
